Twitter reacts in tandem to praise Kohli, mock DRS & discuss “Cook”athon!
After a very entertaining day 4 on Sunday, Twitter rose up to applaud Ben Stokes' stunning catch to get Virat Kohli out while India losing two reviews also brought back the discussion over DRS. The Twitterati also made sure that the effort put in by Alastair Cook and Haseeb Hameed was appreciated.
Yet another random record for Kohli!
Kohli now has scored most runs by an India batsman in his 50th Test, goes past Gavaskar's 234 (13 + 221) #IndvsEng

After Cook survived two close DRS calls and India wasted two...
That's why Dhoni was Against DRS...!!😒#IndvsEng #DRS

MOAR DRS love!!
There's something rather compelling about watching two openers block the living daylights out of it in a bid to save a Test #INDvENG

Another perspective on the DRS!
Kohli wasting reviews. #IndvsEng pic.twitter.com/hKmsU0RSHH

ICYM, Cook and Hameed batted together for 50 odd overs scoring 75.
And amidst all, the English never forget to sledge the Aussies
77 from 53 overs and yet I can't take my eyes off it. Utterly absorbing. Proper cricket. Nothing better.#INDvENG #digin

Hameed was unlucky to get out there but this should cheer him up
That stand was longer (just!) than 4 of Australia's last 8 completed Test innings (+ one of England's too) #IndvEng https://t.co/ANq86wNJl0

Now we know how the English practised for this series
Very impressed with the way Hameed has batted so far in this innings👌Excellent exhibition of skill, temperament &maturity👍 #INDvENG

At least Cook and Root have practiced their digging in #INDvENG pic.twitter.com/NUWrvKcEzI

Witty cook!
Captain's block from Cook #INDvENG

What India needs now?
Time to bring Kumble on #IndvEng

England fan “Oh dear, Cook!”. Indian fan “Jadeja, you beauty!”
Seldom has one ball ruined an entire day for a team: #Cook was crucial #INDvENG
— Sitaraman Shankar (@shankarsview) November 20, 2016
5 balls left in the day, plays across the line? After all that hard work? Brain Fart. #cook #INDvENG

While the cricket was intense, Sehwag couldn’t be kept out of action!
Commentary without @virendersehwag is like a tea without sugar...! #IndvsEng
